3-5-7: Compression shorts shall be a single solid color similar to the predominant color of the uniform; the length shall be above the knee. Undergarments shall not extend below the pants/skirt. See 3-6 for logo requirements.

Previous to 2014-15, the rule read: Compression shorts/tights shall be a single solid color similar to the predominant color of the pants/skirt; the length shall be above the knee. Undergarments shall not extend below the pants/skirt. See 3-6 for logo requirements.

How does the NFHS define "uniform"? Jersey? Shorts? Pants? Skirts?

Stupid NFHS monkeys.

Also, in my opinion, with the recent increase in the use of tights by players, and with recent color restriction rules on tights, the term "compression shorts" is obsolete, and should be struck from the NFHS rulebook. Recent rules regarding tights should cover all aspects of the equipment rules previously dealing with compression shorts.

Aren't compression shorts just short (above the knee) tights? Previous to 2014-15, the NFHS considered compression shorts, and tights, to be one in the same ("Compression shorts/tights").

Stupid NFHS monkeys.
